NAME

     obrotamer — generate conformer/rotamer coordinates

SYNOPSIS

     obrotamer filename

DESCRIPTION

     The obrotamer tool can be used as part of a conformational search by generating random isomers based on
     rotating dihedral angles. These rotamers are not conformers -- that is, obrotamer does not perform geometry
     optimization after generating the rotamer structure. The obminimize tool can do geometry optimization using
     molecular mechanics.

EXAMPLES

           obrotamer baseconformer.sdf >rotamer1.sdf

     Generate a random rotational isomer of baseconformer.sdf and write it to rotamer1.sdf
